For readers of Lean In, Untamed and Women Who Run With the Wolves, Born to Change the Game is an inspiring call upon women leaders to embrace feminine power and sisterhood in order to transform the world we live in. ‘Not only do we share the dream of a better future, we also hold the power to create it.’ In Born to Change the Game , executive coach Carla Clarissa reveals the adaptation strategies by women who succesfully navigate corporate cultures dominated by men and masculine values. By stripping away archaic ideals, she teaches the reader to free herself from a stagnant leadership model and from imposed and often sexist images of women so that she can reconnect with her feminine strength. The foundation for this inner voyage of discovery is Carla’s unique coaching technique, the Journey to Wholeness, which focuses on integrating mind, body, and soul. She helps women discover their full leadership potential and inner compass, allowing them to develop a deeper appreciation for who they are as leaders and as women. Through personal narratives, engaging coaching assignments, and practical tools, Carla helps women take crucial steps towards their authentic power. Carla Clarissa (Carla van Stralen, 1977) has a MS in Management and twenty years of experience working in the corporate world. She is a certified coach and took coaching courses at Tavistock Institute in London and at Deep Coaching Institute in San Francisco. In 2016, she founded a coaching agency for women in leadership. Carla is much in demand as a motivational speaker. REVIEWS “Carla is an extraordinary woman and very competent as an individual coach, with a true psychotherapeutic fiber, empathetic, understanding, and intuitive. I have learned a lot from her, including how to reconnect with the feminine. With Carla, I understood the value, the dignity, and the joy of being a woman.” — Marie Chieze, psychiatric psychotherapist, and a former client of Carla “I was missing the words to express why I was feeling this visceral urge to lead from another place. Not only did Carla’s book deepen my understanding but it also gave me the roadmap to my own wholeness and leadership voice. And, most importantly, it has given me the key to help other women access their whole leadership potential.” — Laurence Anjoras, Director Sustainability and co-founder Chapter Europe of Global Women Connect
